dear friends

 

very few members like you wish to discuss on the subject rudraksha

whereas few have one and only objective of criticising other

suppliers in their oneupmanship. members are all intelligent enough

to understand the validity of xray test and how they find and count

21 seeds in an xray.

 

all rudraksha buyers and suppliers are aware of several mukhis of

nepalese rudraksha especially highers having their top portion

closed. all rudraksha wholesellers from nepal as well as these very

people are aware of this but just to criticise me they are giving

bold certificates to themselves that all their rudraksha have natural

holes and that their rejected rudraksha are bought by all other

suppliers. they are conveniently forgetting that shivapurana

describes rudraksha with a hole bored through human effort is

recommended as middling for wearing and to get benefits. it is only

bold sacrilege on part of these people to say that humanly holed

rudraksha are like damaging and putting a hole in the forehead even

when shivapurana has mentioned and approved of it.

 

it is the height of hypocricy and false selfglorification

certificates to themselves that they dont drill holes in rudraksha,

because these same people are selling rudraksha powder and rudraksha

oil and i have seen them physically selling these rudraksha powder

and oil in exhibitions in various cities. going by their latest mail

of drilling a hole in forehead and damaging the god, it is common

sense for any sane member to imagine how many rudrakshas these people

have killed, crushed, grounded, pounded, beaten and extracted oil and

powder from them. may be these people have double talk to say that

drilling a hole is damaging and holing the god while crushing and

killing and making it into an altogether new product like powder and

oil is not killing the god.

so there is no valid argument against this at all !! Unless perhaps

you damage the bead in some gross way... About X-rays is more of a

philosophical question. There are cosmic, natural and manmade rays

everywhere. I dont suspect that xrays would harm the power of a bead

at all. Since shastra give no advice about checking beads internally

for matching number of internal seeds with lines, but only count the

lines, I am not so concerned about this, unless one checking rare

beads which could be fake. However, to verify the THEORY that genuine

beads ALWAYS have SAME number of SEEDS inside as LINES should be

PROVEN!

Dear Rajiv Krishna Dasa,Hare KrishnaThank you very much for providing the information about how medicine is made from naturally dried seeds of these Himalayan beads, this was very comforting to know.These are the following available references from Shastra* about hole in Rudrakshas:Shiva Purana Chapter 25, Verse 23:"That which has a natural hole from end to end is the most excellent; that which is bored through by human effort is the middling one."Jabalopanishad "If

rudraksha has a natural hole at the appropriate place then it is best.

If the hold is made by force then it is medium quality rudraksha."Srimad Devi BhagavatamChapter 7, 1-4.Those Rudraksha that have their holes by nature running through and through are best; and those that have have their holes pierces by men are middling."* These verses translated by KN Seetha, Power of Rudraksha 2nd expanded EditionIt

is my own limited personal experience that in some beads you have to

use a lot of force (or patience) to carefully get the natural stalk like material out from

the centre of the bead, which in some cases could include

drilling with a machine. You can drill with a toothpick or needle, or a drill machine. The scriptural statement "made by force" is definitely a very

broad term which would allow careful drilling. Also in 2006 I was told

wholeseller/retailer Mukunda Khatiwada of Nepa Rudraksha in Kathmandu

that most 4, 5 and 6 Mukhi Nepali beads have strong seal on the bottom which

require drill machine. Can anyone confirm this?Again again, the point is that Shastra never talk about seeds ANYWHERE, they always refer to the number of mukhi lines to determine what is the power of the bead, so this notion of equal seeds/mukhi lines is not supported by Shastra. Thanks,Y/S, OleShaligram Shala <shaligram8sacred-objects Sent: Thursday, 1 January, 2009 5:57:52Re: Re:

Natural hole in Nepali Origin Rudrakshas

 

Hare Krishna Members, Please accept my best wishes, all glories to Sri Guru and Gauranga, all glories to all the devotees of the Lord.I wanted to finish on to this discussion, but just new topics keep coming and confusions are created because of ignorance and no knowledge on the subject. But trying to prove

some how or the other that one is right with illogical thought process.

 

The Nepali bead Rudraksha has a internal structure such that the centre part inside the bead is weak and can easily be pierced thro the wire WITHOUT DRILLING. The seeds are towards the middle or towards the periphery on each bead and they dont come on the way under any circumstances while piercing the bead for capping thro the centre.

Yes if the bead is deformed then the seeds can come on the way. But by experience any person can found out whether the bead is well formed or not and reject those beads which are liable to have this problem. But ofcourse all these rejected beads are sold at the lesser price so few Suppliers are attracted to it to generate more profits.

 

Secondly I want to ask a simple uestion from the members that which the energy Srot ( energy part) in any Rudrakshas. I mean whether it is The SEEDS or the MUKHS ? Pl answer this question rartionally. In my view it is seeds and not Mukhs as Mukhs are merely the channels to take the energy given by the seeds. So the seeds have to equal and complete as per the Mukhs or not??? So if you are wearing a bead which is not tested for

same no. of seeds vis a vis Mukhs, then you will not get the effect of that Mukhi bead.

It is amply clear that several well developed beads too have lesser seeds than Mukhs. But will take that bead and assume that that is say 8 Mukhi when the seeds inside are 6 or 7. Do you think that such a bead will give you same effect as a bead with 8 seeds and 8 Mukhs ??? So pl ponder on this. In my view you should go for well tested beads than to believe suppliers who actually themselves does'nt know what they are giving to you, in that how many seeds have damaged due to DRILLING and making you wear injured GOD who will actually curse you then to bless you. So be careful and be rational.

 

Now lastly one gentleman has assumed that normal Rudrakshas or their seeds are crushed to make powder or things like that. Does he really know the procedure of making powder and other things out of Rudrakshas ??? or firing like a miss guided, ill informed

missile which is directionless and does't know what is head and tail and ultimately gets blasted with the same missile himself.

 

For the knowledge of members the Rudraksha powder or other products are made from the natural dried up seeds. Normally the seeds are slightly wet inside the bead. In the interior of HIMALAYAS there are several places which are not inhabitated by the humans and there also are several trees of Rudrakshas. There beads especially the lower Mukhs like 3 Mukjhi, 4 Mukhi and 5 Mukhi 6 Mukhis are left there only higher mukhs are taken due to weight constraint. These Rudrakshas dries up naturally and their Mukhs opens up naturally and the dried seeds comes out. Now these seeds are collected for making the Rudrakshas products.

I want to further submit that for making Rudrakshas beads products the wet bead can never be used, it is only naturally dried beads which can be used.

 

I hope this clarifies the doubt which is created by knwledgeless suppliers.

 

I hereby again reitreate and caution Rudrakshas lovers that pl be beware of suppliers which deal in low quality beads and give damaged beads to the devotees and sell Rs. 2000 crippled so called one mukhi with 4 or 5 seeds inside for a Lakhs and cheat the devotees by self styled so called energisation of beads for their own benefit.

 

Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

dear friendsvery few members like you wish to discuss on the subject rudraksha whereas few have one and only objective of criticising other suppliers in their oneupmanship. members are all intelligent enough to understand the validity of xray test and how they find and count 21 seeds in an xray.all rudraksha buyers and suppliers are aware of several mukhis of nepalese rudraksha especially highers having their top portion closed. all rudraksha wholesellers from nepal as well as these very people are aware of this but just to criticise me they are giving bold certificates to themselves that all their rudraksha have natural holes and that their rejected rudraksha are bought by all other suppliers. they are conveniently forgetting that shivapurana describes rudraksha with a hole bored through human effort is recommended as middling for wearing and to get benefits. it is only bold

sacrilege on part of these people to say that humanly holed rudraksha are like damaging and putting a hole in the forehead even when shivapurana has mentioned and approved of it..it is the height of hypocricy and false selfglorification certificates to themselves that they dont drill holes in rudraksha, because these same people are selling rudraksha powder and rudraksha oil and i have seen them physically selling these rudraksha powder and oil in exhibitions in various cities. going by their latest mail of drilling a hole in forehead and damaging the god, it is common sense for any sane member to imagine how many rudrakshas these people have killed, crushed, grounded, pounded, beaten and extracted oil and powder from them. may be these people have double talk to say that drilling a hole is damaging and holing the god while crushing and killing and making it into an altogether new product like

powder and oil is not killing the god.with best wishes and blessingspandit arjunwww.rudraksharemedy ..comsacred-objects, Ole Alstrup <alstrup > wrote:>> Bottom line here is that Shastra says you CAN drill through beads which has no natural hole, (Shiva Purana, Rudraksha Jabalopanishad) so there is no valid argument against this at all !!

Dear Ole

With ref.to your reply to Shri Rajiv let me tell my experence with Rudraksha,I bought few Rudraksha Fruits from Nepal and I myself cleaned them and made one mala for me(32+1),first obious visible factor was the color of these Rudraksha,they are having honey color,not black or colored red or yellowish shade,they are perfect honey colored.

About holes,one has to use a tiny needle first to remove obsticles on mukh and tail side and after that that small sawing needle easily passes into Rudraksha without any troubles,what Mukunda said is half true.I just cleaned the top and bottom area of bead with that needle from outside(did not push it with force or tried pushing it hard into the bead).I shall try to post photo of bead so you can have an idea how is the color they have.

thanks

Note:-My nails are not that long else I think one can use nails and remove obsticle visible on mukh and puchchh so I used tiny needle.

=================

Also in 2006 I was told wholeseller/ retailer Mukunda Khatiwada of Nepa Rudraksha in Kathmandu that most 4, 5 and 6 Mukhi Nepali beads have strong seal on the bottom which require drill machine. Can anyone confirm this?

Dear TpI am used to cleaning raw beads myself, I have cleaned from 2-14 mukhi, so I got enough experience to clean the stalk material out from beads. I should mention I never used a drill machine, but some beads took a long time to get it out, I also had to use a pincet to extract, so I can imagine that some would prefer to just drill through the stalk material to save time. But would very much like to see these honey colored beads, honey can be many colors! I believe these must be yellow color variety. I believe that yellow is often the color of unripen beads, but we never finished this particular discussion about this subject matter in 2007. Also I believe there are various methods of cleaning the pulp and this is why we

sometimes we get beads which have damaged color, they are greyish and when exposed to oil they become dark very fast. It would seem that fully mature beads (with fully developed seeds) are quite rare on the market, I have been told only 5-10% of all beads, perhaps higher mukhi beads of this sort is even more rare, due to the fact that the farmers harvest early to avoid risk of theft, especially with higher mukhi beads as one can see shape and size of the higher bead from the

outer appearance of the fruit, these fully matured beads have a dark brown color and heavy weight and surface brown color of bead look very different from lighter beads which have been soaked in oil to become darker and heavier. I have posted photos in Sept 2007 of a bead like this at sacred-objects/photos/album/1936294074/pic/listLooking forward to see the photo of your mala beads.Thanks,Oletp mods <tpmodssacred-objects Sent: Friday, 2 January, 2009 3:44:42Re: Re: Natural hole in Nepali Origin

Dear Arjuna ji,

 

I do not agree with you regarding either insertion or removal of rudraksha seeds. It is not possible either to insert or remove seeds from rudraksha, keeping the bead intact. Seeds can be removed only after breaking the bead. Rudraksha seeds are situated in locules. These locules are under the cleft or mukhi. One locule for each cleft as far as Elaeocarpus angustifolius is concerned, i.e. Nepal or Indonesian rudraksha. Only in case of oval Haridwar rudraksha whether one mukhi, two mukhi or three mukhi, there is only sigle locule and one seed in it. One can not insert seeds from outside in rudraksha locules. In Nepal or Indonesian rudraksha not all locules develop seeds especially higher mukhi beads. In higher mukhi beads many times clefts or mukhi are very close to each other, rarely two clefts share common wall. In such cases there are no seeds in a perticular locule and locule is also

very poorly formed like a thin slit. It is very difficult to interprete rudraksha X-ray. If customer insists to have rudraksha X-ray showing seeds equal to mukhi then he has to take only three mukhi to 6 mukhi at the most 7 mukhi rudraksha. I have personally noticed that even in 5 mukhi bead sometimes seeds are not well developed and one or two locules are slitformed and naturally empty.

 

Thanking you and with best wishes.

dear olejiyour concluding observation is true and ordained by the scriptures that the scriptures talk only of faces or lines on the outer surface.i can easily demonstrate how seeds can be removed from a rudraksha and also seeds can be put into a rudrakhsa. if one were to blindly count the seeds within, lo, you can find a zero seed nirakar rudraksha as well 100 seeds within a 14mukhi rudraksha and sell it as a 100mukhi just because it has 100 seeds within. here the customers shall care a damn for the external lines which are fewer in number and shall put weightage only on the inserted extra seeds. the process is made explicitly simpler since seed based suppliers find a SUFFICIENTLY NATURALLY FORMED LARGE HOLE in all their rudrakshas.the bottomline is simple. i sell rudraksha only on the basis of the way a rudraksha to be identified as ordained by ALL scriptures.if others wish to

sell on new theories of some invisible things by subjecting the holy gods under a radiation test, they are at liberty to do so. the problem here is that they shall not try to paint the shastras in poor light and those selling rudraksha only based on shastra ordained identification rules as primitive and outdated.anyway, it is all a matter of faith that the rudraksha itself represent lord shiva and is treated as lord shiva and it is never sold as a commodity. those who treat it as a commodity sell it as a commodity with certificates, tests, et all. an image of god is seen as god and is not sold as a commodity. its value lies in the faith that it is god and similarly rudraksha which are botanical seeds are bought not as vegetables that commodity sellers sell but because of treating them as divine.lastly, your finding comfort in using the rudraksha powder and rudraksha oil as holy and divine

is based on the logic that it is extracted not from live rudraksha but from naturally dried, dead, bursted, broken, exposed rudraksha and or its seeds. for those who do treat rudraksha as a commodity, this theory sounds logical but for those who rever rudraksha as god like me, it is simply unimaginable for applying such dried, dead, bursted, broken forms of rudraksha crushed and beaten to produce some usable commodity as oil and powder.the bottomline is very simple. here are two types of sellers of rudraksha. one those who treat it as god. other who treat it as a commodity. you heard stories of how theists find god in stones and athiests find stones just as stones.if members are sour at reading these two different ways of treating and selling rudraksha, i would rest my case under those who treat rudraksha as god and sell them as god embodiments. if others sell it as perishable commodity,

they are at liberty to do so.with best wishes and blessingspandit arjunwww.rudraksharemedy .comsacred-objects, Ole Alstrup <alstrup > wrote:>> Dear Rajiv Krishna Dasa,> > Hare Krishna> > Thank you very much for providing the information about how medicine is made from naturally dried seeds of these Himalayan beads, this was very comforting to know.> > These are the following available references from Shastra* about hole in Rudrakshas:> > Shiva Purana Chapter 25, Verse 23:> > "That which has a natural hole from end to end is the most excellent; that which is bored through by human effort is the middling one."> > Jabalopanishad > > "If> rudraksha has a natural hole at the

dear phadkeji

 

your observations are valued and yes the seeds are supposed to be in

the locules under the cleft. however, many times i have observed in

12, 13 and 14mukhi large sized beads that a couple of beads come in

the centre instead of tightly holding or stuck inside the locules as

you mentioned. while making gold pendants, a seed or two that are in

the middle and obstructing the passage come out or gently removed

using a needle. hence i opined that seeds can be removed and

inserted.

 

i rest my case as i never sell rudraksha on the basis of seeds and am

interested only in the naturally formed mukhis or lines.

 

with best wishes and blessings

rudraksha seeds.  It is not possible either to insert or remove

seeds from rudraksha, keeping the bead intact.  Seeds can be removed

only after breaking the bead.  Rudraksha seeds are situated in

locules.  These locules are under the cleft or mukhi.  One locule

for each cleft as far as Elaeocarpus angustifolius is concerned, i.e.

Nepal or Indonesian rudraksha.  Only in case of oval Haridwar

rudraksha whether one mukhi, two mukhi or three mukhi, there is only

sigle locule and one seed in it.  One can not insert seeds from

outside in rudraksha locules.  In Nepal or Indonesian rudraksha not

all locules develop seeds especially higher mukhi beads.  In higher

mukhi beads many times clefts or mukhi are very close to each other,

rarely two clefts share common wall. In such cases there are no seeds

in a perticular locule and locule is also very poorly formed like a

thin slit.  It is

> very difficult to interprete rudraksha X-ray.  If customer

insists to have rudraksha X-ray showing seeds equal to mukhi then he

has to take only three mukhi to 6 mukhi at the most 7 mukhi

rudraksha.  I have personally noticed that even in 5 mukhi bead

sometimes seeds are not well developed and one or two locules are

slitformed and naturally empty.

Hello Bala

 

I have a questions based on what you have written how can one tell looking at the Rudrasha fruit from out side and say what mukhi it is??

 

"The 1 to 3 and 6-to higher mukhi fruits (harvested immediately withoutany waiting to be fell from trees naturally)are boiled in huge 44gallon drums with water for at least 2 days or more, in a ligthrolling boil to removed the cyan-purple fruit skins and the whitishfibrous pulpy (rather a very tenacious fibrous pulp to be removed) andthen the fibrous pulpy covered Rudraksha Seeds' remains are brushedwith water carefully and loving by nepalese women and children.The 4 and 5 mukhi are left on the trees to fall naturally and these 4or 5 mukhi are dried naturally, which is why the Rudraksha of 4 or 5mukhis are darker in color, when compared to 1 mukhi to 2 mukhis and 6"

 

 

Thanks

Dear Sirs !!!A Very Happy New Year to All Forumers and The most Knowledgeable SahibHindu Owner Mr Richard whom with imperative knowledge on anything andeverything about Hindu and Hinduism including the Puranas.An interesting point is raised here that Nepalese Rudraksha Seeds aredried Naturally. I have visited Nepal (almost all regions) since my drug ridden Hippiedays 1969 annually till last visit Autumn 2008 October 15 to 23rd.I have noticed this fact for almost 4 decades -stretching fromcare-free druggie loonie days till now to visit old nepalese friendsof many decades in Eastern Nepal:-Not one Nepalese Rudraksha farmer nor any Nepalese Rudraksha Supplierhas the noble patience to sun dried nor smoke house dry the RudrakshaFruits naturally to remove the seeds as its economically not possible,and the sales have to be conducted within the season of fruiting -September to

October, when the Wholsale Buyers throng the growingRegions (Mainly and only Eastern Nepal /toward Assameseborders/Arunachal border.The 1 to 3 and 6-to higher mukhi fruits (harvested immediately withoutany waiting to be fell from trees naturally)are boiled in huge 44gallon drums with water for at least 2 days or more, in a ligthrolling boil to removed the cyan-purple fruit skins and the whitishfibrous pulpy (rather a very tenacious fibrous pulp to be removed) andthen the fibrous pulpy covered Rudraksha Seeds' remains are brushedwith water carefully and loving by nepalese women and children.The 4 and 5 mukhi are left on the trees to fall naturally and these 4or 5 mukhi are dried naturally, which is why the Rudraksha of 4 or 5mukhis are darker in color, when compared to 1 mukhi to 2 mukhis and 6to higher muhkis are light reddish with ( not blackish reddish color)but very evenly light tinted

of orangeness tone, as obtained whenboiled as described as accurately as seen many times in Eastern Nepal( Eastern Nepal is incidentally foothills of the Himalayas and not theHimalaya proper at all.If by accident, unknowing a smaller higher mukhi Rudraksha are left onthe tree and then naturally allowed to fall and decompose the fruitskin and fibrous pulp when felled on ground, such higher mukhiRudraksha seeds are added coloration to remove the blackish Reddishcolor to a even reddish orange, that we see with the most nepalesebeads of higher mukhi.In the Interior of the Himalayas -thats North Nepal towards ChinaBorder and Western Nepal towards Tibet ), there is hardly any othertrees except for the mighty holy Devadaru (The exalted Timber ofDevas, and very small brushes, mosses and lichens for the MuskDeers,Mountain goats of Pashina fame and the Musk oxes, of course the albinotigers and

maybe the Yetis-the abonomial Snow man, leaving strangesuper human footprints above the timber lines, if we are lucky , maybea naked mediating Sadhu, in the rocky crevisses/or something like asmall caves, of whom you will chanced to meet again at Pashupati NathTemple during Maha Shiv Ratiri festival, smoking grass given as almsby pilgrims, and sitting next to burning human pyres by the temple'ssouth walled banks of Baghmukti River, a tributory river of Ganga).The mukhis represents the seeds, doubtless, but a rudraksha seed cangerminate after a long time, as it is still a living germ within theRudraksha cotyledon.My doubt is whether such boiled Nepalese Rudraksha beads' seeds hasthe energy to radiate, after being boiled ?Indonesia I have seen different practices :Thats to allow the fruits to fell by itself and decompose naturallyand the indonesian just collect the beads intact without

any fibrouspulps or skins after about 6 to 8 months later; that around April toJune the collecting and selling season of Rudraksha beads.The reason for very dark blackish reddishness of Indonesian beads.But the germ is alive with the Indonesia Rudraksha beads as there isno enhanced boiling to contigency the quick sales by the Batakcollectors/suppiers .There was many nepalese traders/buyers who were routed to Indonesia tosupplement the delepting nepalese stocks, by adding Reddish Orangenesssynthetic colors to Indonesian Beads, during the Maoist uprising inEastern Nepal 2002-2006.X-rays to confirm the number of seeds, is also destructive to theliving germs, as the bead weight is hardly 20 grams and theirradiation of even 20 bequceral are most destructive if compared byratio to ratio of weight, in comparision to 20 Bq to 45 kg weighthuman with pronounced specific aligement (i.e on

chest or legs or armsaligements).I rest for now with these info, to share my knowledge.Another subject, I read a couple of years ago in these forumHow to get in Phasupat Nath temple by a Sahib, as I get my wife and mysisters in law and parents in law, as they are blue -eyed germansahibs of brasilian origin, living in USASunless Self Tanning all over the body and face is the answer and wearnormal nepalese or northern Indian dress or saris with Tilaks, if blueeyed wear a simple sun glasses, do not behave tourists, but behave asnorthern Indian, and speak not at all, get a tourist guide young kidsat Agrawal outlet shop (about 200 metres from South Gate) at SouthernGate.Once you got the guide, you will told (briefed) what to do in eachsantcum,and he will show hand signals there.Go first to old peoples home at the South Gate and give alms of NR2000 rupess and get the receipt and

go with the Guide, to a flowersshop facing the gate and buy flowers and offerings, leave your shoesin these flower shop ! Do not wear trousers/pants or belts but dotiand simple gurutha /button up to your chest..You will surely be in the temple and be generous with the bramaninpundits at the first point of worship of 540 Sivas. let the guide doall the talking to bramin priest, you just conduct prayers asrepetition of the mantras and abhishek of Shivlings.Never take off your sunglasses and be absolute quiet as your guidewill do everything talking for you. It will be better if you wish tobow with your forehead touching the ground at each santcum.Thats all about Nepal I knowsacred-objects, Shaligram Shala<shaligram8@ ...> wrote:>> Hare Krishna Members, >

Butby experience any person can found out whether the bead is well formedor not and reject those

beads which are liable to have this problem.But ofcourse all these rejected beads are sold at the lesser price sofew Suppliers are attracted to it to generate more profits.> Â > Secondly I want to ask a simple uestion from the members that whichthe energy Srot ( energy part) in any Rudrakshas. I mean whether it isThe SEEDS or the MUKHS ? Pl answer this question rartionally. In myview it is seeds and not Mukhs as Mukhs are merely the channels totake the energy given by the seeds. So the seeds have to equal andcomplete as per the Mukhs or not??? So if you are wearing a bead whichis not tested for > same no. of seeds vis a vis Mukhs, then you will not get the effectof that Mukhi bead. > It is amply clear that several well developed beads too have lesserseeds than Mukhs. But will take that bead and assume that that is say8 Mukhi when the seeds inside are 6 or 7. Do you think that

such abead will give you same effect as a bead with 8 seeds and 8 Mukhs??? So pl ponder on this. In my view you should go for well testedbeads than to believe suppliers who actually themselves does'nt knowwhat they are giving to you, in that how many seeds have damaged dueto DRILLING and making you wear injured GOD who will actually curseyou then to bless you. So be careful and be rational.>  > Now lastly one gentleman has assumed that normal Rudrakshas or theirseeds are crushed to make powder or things like that.

other products are  made from the natural dried up seeds. Normally the seeds areslightly wet inside the bead. In the interior of HIMALAYAS there areseveral places which are not inhabitated by the humans and there alsoare several trees of Rudrakshas. There beads especially the lowerMukhs like 3 Mukjhi, 4 Mukhi and 5 Mukhi 6 Mukhis are left there onlyhigher mukhs are taken due to weight constraint. These  Rudrakshasdries up naturally and their Mukhs opens up naturally and the driedseeds comes out. Now these seeds are collected for making theRudrakshas products.> I want to further submit that for making Rudrakshas beads productsthe wet bead can never be used, it is only naturally dried beads whichcan be used. >  > I hope this clarifies the doubt which is created by knwledgelesssuppliers.>  > I hereby again

Hello Friend !!!!!

Thanks for the interesting query !!!!!

 

The nepalese growers, collectors, wholesale suppliers, whom involved

in Rudraksha Trade, are more well versed in what they have been doing,

as Cash Crop for many Generations.

 

They can determine by looking at the fleshy Drupe of Purplish Cyan

color (rudraksha fruits)while its on the tree branches....as bunch of

rudraksha fruit. Of how many mukhis ? it is ????

 

These nepalese growers also can make decision to whether they want to

tie a plastic bag around the bunch of rudraksha fruits (as they may

feel its a group of higher mukhi producing fruits), in the event, that

a strong north wind blow from Siberia, in the duration of the night,

and to not to lose the fruits in the tempest...

 

Most Rudraksha trees looks like Christmas Tree from May-June to

October, with plastic bags tied to bunches of rudraksha Fruit.

You can only see this peculiar sight in Eastern Nepal foot hills of

Himalaya, but not any where else in other parts of Nepal.

 

Other regions and interior of Nepal, you never see a Rudraksha Tree,

but only other Alpine Timbers like Devadaru, pine, conifers,beech etc,

But never a Rudraksha tree in any interior Himalayas.

 

Why???? No Rudraksha in other regions:- Western, Northern or even

Southern region bordering India ????

 

Eastern Nepal from Bhiratpur (town) to Assam, Bangla Desh,and Yunnan

borders,and literally Assam, Bangla Desh,Burma, Yunnan Province,

Hainan Island, Andaman & Nicobars,Thailand, Malaysia (East and West),

the entire Indonesia (approx 7000 islands), Vietnam, Cambodia , Laos,

Philippines, southern islands of Okinawa(japan) Papua new Guinea, and

Pacific tropical islands of New Britain, Saippan, New hebrides,

Solomon, Islands,and Northern Terrorities (Australia) are parts of

the Botanical Geographical Tropical Region of " MALESIANA "

 

MALESIANA Is the home of all known and classified species of

Elaeocarpus spp.

 

 

Thanks

Hare Krishna Prabhu, Thanks for your mail Prabhu. Please accept my best wishes, all glories to Sri Guru and Gauranga, all glories to all the devotees of the Lord.

Prabhu, so your claim of fitting seeds and removing seeds was all fake,

 

2. You wanted to say or highlight that whether there is a seed or not inside the Rudraksha will continue to perform the functions from those Mukhs also where there is no energy at all. or Mukhs themselves are the souce of energy and they are not dependent upon seeds to give the energy. Either of the statement should be right as per you.

 

2. You devised your self styled theory of energisation of beads which is no where mentioned in Purans, so it is OK with you, but since as per you the texts for 15 and higher Mukhis are not there in Puranas so these beads are merely nuts for you. They are not the direct manifestations of Lord Shiva to you. They are untouchable beads for you because no text is mentioned in Puranas so you dont sell them. But you can do energisation which is not mentioned in Purana , so that is OK with you. So you think 15 Mukhi and above beads are commodites and these things have no significance at all, they are powerless and should not be worn, because they are not mentioned in Puranas ?

This is what is truely called as 'Hypocracy'.

 

3. You deal in those Rudrakshas which have the seeds never remain in one place ( they are free to move inside!! I really wonder the quality of these Rudrakshas???) ) and they come towards centre and get damaged when you pierce the hole for capping etc.

 

I and members of this forum have now got fair amount of idea from all discussions that what type of supplier you are, how nicely you can fit the seeds inside and take seeds out without breaking, you dont consider 15 Mukhi and above Rudrakshas as Shiva's manifestations, you treat them as commodity and they are merely nuts for you and hence you dont deal in them. You claim to add value to your Rudrakshas by your self styled process which has no relevance from Puranas and that is OK for you.

 

I dont want to waste any more time in having more discussions with a KNOWLEDGEABLE PERSON like you Prabhu.

I hope this will help,Aum Namoh Bhagvate Vasudevay Saligram Dev NamahaI beg to remain yours in the humble service of the Lord and His devotees.

dear friendlet it be known to the world in simple english which all understand about the following:1. i sell rudraksha only on the basis of the visible naturally formed lines as ordained by the shastras. 2. i do not believe and endorse and follow the seed theory as it is irrational and without logic. if others wish to sell on invisible seeds without any sanction from the shastras, they are at liberty to do so.3. i do not imagine of treating rudraksha as a commodity and make powders and oils from it like other commodity sellers do.my offer to show the insertion and removal of seeds is only to highlight the useless meaningless seed theory not ordained by the shastras.. if someone opines that this is an art, he is not intelligent to construe so, because of the following:1. i sell only 1 to 14 types of rudraksha.2. i refer ALL ancient original classics and no modern

unheard books.3. i do not sell nirakar zero mukh rudrakhsa, so seedlovers need not jump to find zero seeds in it.4. i have not purchased or sold 15 mukh and higher type of rudraksha in my lifetime as i find no mention in original classics and hence seedlovers shall rejoice to find no competition from me in their selling 15 to 100 mukhis.the seed theory lovers also who relished with a wry smile and found thier joy in vehemently telling the world to buy one mukhi rudraksha with only one seed in it must equally apply the seed theory to show as many seeds as the number of lines they are selling and onus is on them to show their customers to show those many seeds. it is not my headache to argue for them, as this seed theory is illogical and irrational to me.lastly i rest my case to conclude that i am AGAINST seed theory and hence put onus on those who sell rudraksha ONLY ON SEED BASIS and

not me.with best wishes and blessingspandit arjunwww.rudraksharemedy .comsacred-objects, Shaligram Shala <shaligram8@ ...> wrote:>> Hare Krishna Prabhu, > Thanks for your mail Prabhu.

I want to know about this secret art, atleast I can put this on the fake bead section on my website and educate the devotees so that devotees will be careful from the fake suppliers. Since how long you are practising this wonderful art of fitting seeds

Pl tell me how much money I should deposit in your bank account so that you can make 100 Mukhi Rudraksha by fitting 100 seeds inside. I shall deposit today itself.

Our sale of Rudrakshas is governed by facts, figures, research and testing. Pl govern yourself by rationality, wit and wisdom. Dont take 5 years to know the texts of Rudrakshas above 15 Mukhi are

mentioned > where and in which book. They are still mentioned in atleast five holy books of Hindus, but take atleast that much pains to find out where they are. Learn correctly where energisation process is mentioned in the holy books and follow it strictly.

I shall show you how ahead we have gone in energisation of beads by using different scientific ways.
